Opel Movano with double cabin

The Opel Movano is a popular commercial vehicle that has been on the market in our country since 2011. Initially, the Opel Movano was based on the Renault Master and later on the Fiat Ducato. The third generation uses a diesel engine that is also found in the Citroen Jumper and the Peugeot. The Opel Movano is often seen as a cheap alternative to the Sprinter (which we also modify, by the way). Do you want an Opel Movano with an extra row of seats? Then contact us to discuss the possibilities.

Benefits of Opel Movano with Double Cabin

The Opel Movano has wide doors that provide easy access to the cargo space with a capacity of up to 17 cubic meters. Plenty of space, indeed. And that gives you the perfect opportunity to install a double cabin. This way, your commercial vehicle has more than enough space for both goods and people. This makes your Movano the ideal vehicle to drive to jobs.

Why an Opel Movano with a double cabin?

By installing an additional row of seats in your Opel Movano, you create a van that can fit six people. Ideal for jobs where more than three people are needed. You don’t have to drive two vehicles or make multiple trips. This not only reduces the strain on your fleet but also benefits the environment! You consume less fuel. Additionally, you spend less on road tax and car insurance as you only need one vehicle instead of two.

A great additional benefit of a modified Opel Movano is that with the extra row of seats, you can take your family on trips in this van. Plenty of room for suitcases, bags, toys, food, and drinks, and everyone can come along!

Tax benefits of a double cabin

As a vehicle with a gray license plate, an Opel Movano with a double cabin was tax-attractive for years, as you could benefit from tax advantages and a lower tax premium. Unfortunately, as of 2025, the gray license plate scheme for businesses will be discontinued. Starting January 1, 2025, businesses will pay the full BPM (tax on passenger cars and motorcycles) upon purchase.

An Opel Movano emits more CO2, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter as a commercial vehicle or van than a passenger car. This was the reason for the cabinet to abolish the exemption for vehicles with a gray license plate starting in 2025.

From that year onwards, the BPM will be calculated based on CO2 emissions (just like for passenger cars). This amounts to 66.90 euros per gram of CO2. Therefore, it will quickly result in ten to twenty thousand euros in taxes.

Drive around in your Opel Movano with a double cab, RDW-certified

As an RDW-recognized company, we ensure that your car meets the requirements for commercial vehicles. This is also very important for you. If your Opel Movano with a double cab does not meet these requirements, it will be considered a passenger car for motor vehicle tax and bpm.

Apart from the RDW requirements, we also ensure that you can hit the road safely with your company car. Every conversion we do meets all European standards. For example, we equip the additional row of seats with three-point safety belts and headrests. Read more about our guarantees.

Seamless installation of a double cabin in your Opel Movano

When you choose an Opel Movano with a double cabin, you naturally want this to be done in a good way. We understand that better than anyone. Therefore, we ensure that, for example, the upholstery of your extra row of seats, but also the headliner, wall, and partition trims match the existing interior of your Opel Movano.

Frequently Asked Questions

Very fast! In most cases, you can be back on the road with your converted van within three days. How is that possible? Because we keep most parts in ample stock. Very occasionally, a part needs to be ordered, but fortunately, this is often not necessary. As a result, the conversion time and lead time can be considered very short.

Blix started in 1999 as part of ABK Kunststoffen, a manufacturer of partition walls. To further grow the process of installing double cabins in commercial vehicles, a separate company was established in 2016: Multi-Cab. This company moved from Dodewaard to Heteren at the beginning of 2019, and here not only total autonomy was achieved but also a new building and a new name: Blix Automotive.

Blix Automotive has its office and workshop in Heteren. To be precise, at Hooiland 2 in the industrial area Poort van Midden-Gelderland Zuid. Our location is near the A50, making it very easy to reach by car.
